Established in 1975, Comhlámh (pronounced ‘co-law-ve’, Irish for ‘solidarity’) is a member and supporter organisation open to anyone interested in social justice, human rights and global development issues.

Some of the key issues with which Comhlámh engages include:

Comhlámh's Volunteering Options programme works to promote informed decision-making among overseas volunteers,
and to encourage best practice for organisations that arrange volunteer placements in developing countries.

Comhlámh also provides a wide range of services and supports for returning development workers.
